Can the brain function when its architecture is altered? A team from the University of Geneva (UNIGE) demonstrates that ...

I still vividly remember the first time we observed neurons responding not to audible sound, but to concentrated, precisely ...

Using an aging clock, researchers from the University of Cologne have used the Caenorhabditis elegans model organism to demonstrate that nerve cells age differently. They identified both the causes of ...

Your organs are constantly talking to each other in ways we’re only beginning to understand. Tapping into these communication ...

An upside-down jellyfish drifts in a shallow lagoon, rhythmically contracting its translucent bell. By night that beat drops ...

New research shows how some brain cells fight tau buildup in Alzheimer’s, pointing to internal systems that help neurons survive longer.

New experiments reveal how astrocytes tune neuronal activity to modulate our mental and emotional states. The results suggest ...

The first node sits in the peripheral nervous system. Sensory neurons in the vagus nerve detect damage in the heart and send signals upward. The researchers focused on a subset of vagal sensory ...

Researchers have developed a way to grow a highly specialized subset of brain nerve cells that are involved in motor neuron disease and damaged in spinal injuries.
